"Wei Jianyuan, the magistrate of Yuhang County in the east, welcomes everyone to Yuhang."

Wei Jianyuan has repeated that sentence at least dozens of times today, which means it will be the day when he receives the most guests from all walks of life.

Before the National Day, Wei Jianyuan received a notice from the Donghai Region Garrison Command requesting to hold a live-fire military exercise outside Yuhang County. The relevant preparations have begun since then.

First of all, please cooperate with the military's request, demarcate a military exercise area outside the county, and prepare campsites and necessary supplies for the participating troops.

Secondly, he requested to recruit a number of civilians outside the county to serve as logistical equipment and wait for the military's dispatch.

Of course, the most important thing is to be prepared to receive big figures from all walks of life. It is said that in addition to military generals, members of the Executive Committee and foreign envoys will also be present to watch the military exercise. This is wrong in the small Yuhang County

In other words, is there a more important priority than the military exercise itself?

In the Haihan Zhidong area, officials retained by the previous dynasty generally retain their previous official positions temporarily. Wei Jianyuan calls himself the county magistrate rather than the county magistrate because he is a naturalized citizen who grew up in Sanya. He graduated from the Haihan Administration College and studied under the Executive Committee

The boss, Ning Qi, had an upright family background, so his official title naturally had to follow the Haihan system.

When he was appointed as the county magistrate of Yuhang County, Wei Jianyuan once thought that he had been "assigned" to a remote area. However, as the plan to move the capital came to light, Yuhang Yidongzi became one of the areas closest to the new capital of Hangzhou.

He then realized that his master had foresight and had paved the way for him long ago.

Wei Jianyuan is only in his twenties and has never held a decent position before. With his qualifications, if he wants to find an official position in Hangzhou, it will be difficult to compete with those officials who have moved north from Sanya, let alone someone like Shi Diwen.

There are many officials in the department waiting to fill the vacancies. But getting a county magistrate near Hangzhou is not Shi Diwen's special consideration for Ning Qi's face.

Of course Wei Jianyuan is determined to make some achievements while in office, but for the time being, the various major projects prepared for the capital relocation plan do not have a share in Yuhang County. It is not feasible to rely on the construction of key projects to earn performance.

Fortunately, Yuhang has been a land of plenty since ancient times, and its agricultural foundation is quite good. Wei Jianyuan needs to spend some time promoting agricultural technology and introducing agricultural product processing technology, which has steadily improved Yuhang's agricultural production.

No matter how bad luck comes, there is no way to stop it. Just when Wei Jianyuan was regretting that Yuhang had not won a key project, a military exercise came uninvited. For Yuhang County and Wei Jianyuan, it was simply unlucky.

A great thing about falling into the pie.

Although Yuhang County has invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in this effort, the opportunity to perform in front of the executive committee is worth a thousand dollars to a local official like Wei Jianyuan.

In terms of making relevant preparations, Wei Jianyuan did not even go to Hangzhou to join in the fun during those few days, which can be regarded as a big sacrifice.

After everything was ready, Wei Jianyuan posted notices throughout the county two days in advance, informing the public not to enter the temporary control area designated by the government.

In fact, the news of the military exercise is not a secret. With the collection of civilians and supplies, it has spread locally before. The local government announced that the military exercise should be made public to the general public. In addition, there are Haihan troops outside the temporary control area.

On duty, people who want to watch the excitement can give up their thoughts.

Most of the people from the military arrived in advance yesterday, especially the troops who were on guard duty. As soon as they arrived, a large area was circled outside the original temporary control area, prohibiting outsiders from entering, and even some of them were not allowed to enter.

Farmland is included in it.

Wei Jianyuan knew the pros and cons of such behavior, so he could cooperate as much as possible. Although he did not go to Hangzhou, he also heard that the executive committee was assassinated when it arrived in Hangzhou a few days ago. Although he did not survive, the relevant security personnel

Are the measures required to be upgraded?

But Wei Jianyuan was slightly disappointed because his mentor Ning Qi had other schedules and did not come to Yuhang.

Shi Diwen, of course, spoke highly of Yuhang County's preparations and asked Wei Jianyuan to come to the viewing platform to watch the game together, which also flattered him.

The viewing platform for the military exercise was built on an earthen slope about one mile away from the exercise venue. The stepped seats ensure that all spectators have a complete and unobstructed view.

After all the spectators were seated, Shi Diwen ordered the drill to begin.

Each guest received a thin book containing tomorrow's drill items and the weapons and equipment that will appear in each session.

Tomorrow's military exercise is planned to have the Haihan Army as the attacker, simulating an attack on the Ming Army garrison fortress here, and demonstrating the tactics and tactics used by the Haihan Army in critical battles.

Considering that the attackers will use live ammunition, there will be no defensive personnel outside the fortress during the military exercise. Before the military exercise began, the spectators had already visited the outside of the fortress to confirm the abandoned fortress.

It is not a model that will fall over at first push.

The purpose of setting up a garrison there in the Ming Dynasty was to defend Hangzhou. Therefore, the garrison must be capable of advancing, attacking, retreating, and defending. There are warehouses, stables, wells, barracks and other facilities outside the fort.

With a ditch, a suspension bridge and a protective wall about one foot high, it looks like a small city.

There are artillery positions at the top of the protective wall. The artillery originally deployed here was small-caliber artillery like the Crouching Tiger Artillery. Its range and power were extremely limited. When it was out of formation with an attacker like the Haihan Army, it would basically not be able to take advantage of it.

to any cheaper.

The troops playing the offensive role this time were the Second Regiment of the Seventh Lu Division in the Donghai Region, and therefore the garrison stationed in Hangzhou.

The participating troops are a synthetic battalion affiliated to the East of the Second Regiment. They are essentially temporary units formed by transferring the elite of the entire regiment.

The most striking feature of that unit is that its artillery organization exceeds the normal standards of the Haihan Army. According to the information obtained by the guests, they will use as many as ten types of artillery in battle. Normally

Generally speaking, the entire Lu Qi Division may not be able to collect so many models.

Of course, it is not difficult to understand whether the Haihan Army's move obviously demonstrated its weaponry. In actual combat, if so many types of artillery were required to be used in a battle, the quartermaster would probably be tempted to jump in and scold others.

With a blast of sonorous and powerful drums, the Haihan Army entered the battlefield. Leading the charge was a group of armed cavalry, crossing their horses and marching forward outside the fortress.

The purpose of this is to clear obstacles for subsequent troops to enter the attack position, and to conduct fire reconnaissance on the fortress defenders to see if the enemy side will fire recklessly to expose equipment and firepower points.
